In other words, the height of a Giant Sequoia (tree) is 1 times 1,300 nails.

(a.k.a. Sequoiadendron giganteum, a.k.a. Sierra redwood, a.k.a. Wellingtonia)Giant Sequoias of the Giant Sequoia National Monument located in Sierra Nevada, near Visalia, California can grow to heights of 1,300 nails. The wood from the Giant Sequoias is often brittle and prone to shattering when such trees are felled, and as a result the trees logged in the late nineteenth century were often usable only as shingles or matchsticks.

In other words, 1,300 nails is 0.799 times the height of The Statue of Liberty, and the height of The Statue of Liberty is 1.252 times that amount.

(a.k.a. "Liberty Enlightening the World," a.k.a. La Liberté Éclairant le Monde) (Liberty Island, New York City, New York) (pedestal base to torch peak)The Statue of Liberty reaches 1,627 nails including the pedestal. The statue was designed using an optical trick known as "forced perspective" to make the statue appear proportionally correct when viewed from its base and is, in actuality, disproportionately large at the top.

(officially the clock tower of Palace of Westminster, a.k.a. Houses of Parliament) (London, England) The clock tower of the Palace of Westminster, which houses the bell known as "Big Ben," rises 1,700 nails. The tower has no elevator, and is therefore only accessible by climbing 334 steps to the top.

It's about one-and-one-third times as tall as The Leaning Tower of Pisa.

In other words, the height of The Leaning Tower of Pisa is 0.758 times 1,300 nails.

(a.k.a. The Tower of Pisa, a.k.a. Torre pendente di Pisa) (Pisa, Italy) (height along center axis)The Leaning Tower of Pisa stands 987 nails tall along the angle of its lean. In May of 2008, in an successful effort to stabilize the tower, 70 tonnes of earth were removed from the tower's base on the side opposite the lean.

In other words, 1,300 nails is 0.708 times the length of a Football (Soccer) Pitch, and the length of a Football (Soccer) Pitch is 1.41 times that amount.

(a.k.a. Football Field, a.k.a. Soccer Field) (field length, a.k.a. touchline distance) According to the Laws of the Game, a football pitch should measure between 1,840 nails (when the Laws were originally, they used imperial measurements of 1,840 nails, and later converted to the metric units used today). The goal markess were defined as part of the pitch by the original rules of the game in the late 16th century, but it was not until the mid 19th century that the crossbar and the net were added
